Section 2

Introduction

The American Soldier -– superbly trained, equipped, and led -- is the centerpiece of the Army’s combat formations and systems. The Military Personnel, Army (MPA) appropriation provides the resources needed to compensate those active duty Soldiers who man the Army’s force structure as it transforms to the Army’s Modular Forces design. In addition to personnel in the force structure, the appropriation also provides compensation for personnel in the individual accounts: students, trainees, transients, cadets, and holdees (holdees include patients and others). The Army’s manning goal is to provide, in a timely manner, the right number of high quality Soldiers in the appropriate grades and skills to satisfy force structure authorizations. Accomplishing this goal ensures a high degree of personnel and combat readiness in units.

The FY 2007 budget continues to emphasize Army transformation towards the future, while

providing our Soldiers with what they need for the current fight. America’s All-Volunteer Army, the world’s dominant land force, remains actively engaged in the Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). Current and future MPA funding levels are critical indicators of our nation’s commitment to maintain the all-volunteer force. MPA also funds the Army’s continuing commitment to taking care of Soldiers’ families, allowing Soldiers to remain focused on their primary duties. The current operational environment does impact our recruiting and retention efforts, so this budget provides a baseline level of incentives to allow the Army to continue to attract and retain the right people. Management Characteristics of MPA MPA is a centrally managed, single-year, appropriation which funds pay and allowances, monetary benefits/incentives, subsistence, and permanent change of station (PCS) costs for Soldiers. Entitlements are set by statute, with the biggest cost driver being the average number of personnel on active duty. There are other factors, such as overseas strength, percentage of married personnel, and personnel policy, which also impact heavily on requirements in this appropriation. Major Changes in the Active Army Budget Estimates Like the FY 2006 budget the 2007 estimate (excluding contingency operations) is based on a 482,400 man-years program for FY 2007. The permanent minimum level end-strength is 502,400. Funding for end strength above the baseline level of 482,400 will be requested through FY 2007 Supplemental Appropriations. End Strength

In FY 2006 and FY 2007, the Army needs to continue to increase its end strength to meet deployment commitments in support of the GWOT and to convert to Army Modular Force structure which will add 9 new active duty Brigade Combat Teams (BCTs) by 2007 (growing to 42 from 33

brigades in FY 2003.) The result will be the creation of a larger pool of more capable and lethal units for rotational deployments tailored to meet the Combatant Commander’s requirements. The required resources for the increase in end strength above the baseline level are not included in the President’s budget.

o FY 2006: The Army projects to end FY 2006 with end strength of 498,700 or 16,300

(7,800 work-years) above the baseline budget request. The cost estimate for this additional end strength is about $.644 billion (pay and allowances only) and will be requested in the Department's supplemental request for contingency operations.

End Strength Current Plan 498,700 Current Funded Level 482,400

Difference +16,300

o FY 2007: Since the GWOT military operations are inherently unpredictable and not part of routine force deployments, the Army plans to seek supplemental funding in FY 2007 for the additional end strength above the baseline level of 482,400.

End Strength Permanent Minimum Level 502,400 FY 2007 Budget Estimate 482,400

Difference +20,000

Other Changes

• The annualized 2006 DOD military pay raise of 3.1% with a 1 January 2006 effective date is budgeted.

• The 2007 DOD military 2.2% across-the-board pay raise of with selective increases for

certain warrant officers and mid-grade senior enlisted personnel is also budgeted assuming a 1 April 2007 effective date.

• The normal cost percentage used to calculate payments to the military retired pay trust

fund is 26.5% in FY 2006 and FY 2007. • The rates for subsistence are indexed to the annual changes in the US Department of

Agriculture food plan. • The estimates for overseas station allowances are based on rates of exchange of €0.8530

Euro/$1 U.S. • BAH housing growth is an overall 6.0%, effective 1 January 2006. • BAH – Residential Communities Initiative (RCI). The RCI program is a highly successful

Army initiative to leverage private capital to alleviate housing shortages, rapidly improve the condition of existing housing and eliminate inadequate family housing. This initiative is fully funded in FY 2007. This program focuses on developing and managing communities and embraces comprehensive planning and execution, as opposed to piecemeal projects. The following installations are funded through FY 2007: Carson, Hood, Lewis, Meade, Hamilton, Bragg, Campbell, Irwin, Stewart, Polk, Eustis, Detrick, Shafter, Walter Reed Medical Center, Picatinney Arsenal, Schofield Barracks, Hunter Army Airfield, Moffet Field, Presidio of Monterey, Leonard Wood, Drum, Sam Houston, Carlisle Barracks, Monmouth, Benning, Knox, Rucker, Leavenworth, Gordon, Redstone Arsenal, McPherson, Riley, White Sands Missile Range, Belvoir, Lee, and Bliss.

• The Department of Defense is committed to reducing the unexpended/unobligated balances

occurring annually in the military personnel appropriations. As part of the FY 2007 budget formulation, and in recognition of Congressional action on the FY 2006 budget the military personnel budget estimates were reduced by over $300 million to account for historical unexpended/unobligated balances. These reductions were based on the methodology used by the General Accountability Office. The FY 2007 Military Personnel, Army budget estimate was reduced by $136.8 million. In addition to the funding reductions, the Service Components and the Defense Finance and Accounting Service are working together to:

o Develop the lowest, achievable percentage level of unobligated/unexpended balances,

o Develop a Financial Improvement Plan with specific tasks that will be performed to reduce the unobligated/unexpended balances,

o Add the necessary personnel resources to improve execution data collection, and o Closely monitor, through metrics reporting the progress, to reduce MILPERS

appropriation unobligated/unexpended balances to the lowest, achievable percentage level by the end of each appropriation’s 5 year availability.

• The Ronald W. Reagan National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005 (P.L. 108-

375) provided permanent, indefinite appropriations to finance the cost of TRICARE benefits accrued by uniformed service members. Previously, the military personnel accounts were required to pay the accrued costs, using annual appropriations. Since these costs are actually borne in support of the Department of Defense, they will be shown as part of the DoD discretionary total. Ten new accounts corresponding to each of the existing military personnel accounts have been created to show the cost of these payments. Beginning in FY 2006, the appropriations requested for the military personnel accounts exclude funding to make the retiree health accrual payments. Total obligations on behalf of military personnel include both the amounts requested for appropriation and amounts paid from the permanent, indefinite authority.

Global War On Terrorism

This baseline MPA appropriation request does not include estimates for Global War on Terrorism (GWOT). As necessary the Army will seek supplemental appropriations to finance the incremental military personnel costs above the baseline budget for on-going military operations (Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF) and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF)). In FY 2005, PL 109-13 Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for Defense, GWOT, and Tsunami Relief, provided the Army with $12.0 billion to sustain military operations in Iraq, Afghanistan, and elsewhere. For FY 2006 the Congress provided advance appropriations of $4.8 billion to finance this requirement in Public Law PL 109 - 163, Title IX, FY 2006 Department of Defense Appropriations Act.

MILITARY PERSONNEL, ARMYPerformance Measures and Evaluation Summary

Activity: Active Military Personnel Activity Goal: Maintain the correct Active Military Personnel to execute National Strategy. Description of Activity: The Active Military Personnel appropriation provides resources necessary to compensate military personnel required to man approved force structure and support infrastructure, which includes pay, allowances, individual clothing, subsistence, and permanent changes of station. PERFORMANCE MEASURES:

FY 2005 Actual FY 2006 Planned FY 2007 Planned Average Strength 614,800 529,198 484,313 End Strength 492,728 498,700 482,400 Authorized End Strength 502,400 502,400 502,400 Additional End Strength FY 2005 NDAA authorized an increase to end strength of 20K. This brings the Army’s end strength to 502.4K in FY 2005. This metric measures the variance in planned versus actual man-years. This display provides the information to meet the Office of Management and Budget requirement for PART-Program Assessment Rating Tool. Recruiting 1. Numeric goals 80,000 80,000 80,000 Actual 73,974 - Total Recruiting mission is compared to actual accessions for the fiscal year. The percent goal accomplished is the measurement. Narrative: Recruiting goals were not met for FY 2005 due to the challenges in recruiting environment, challenges due to increased alternatives for youth, the historically low propensity to enlist, and the increased operating tempo. In addition, the goals for FY 2006 and FY 2007 will change due to the temporary 30,000-end strength increase. 2. Quality goals

a. HSDG percent (Tier I) 90% 90% 90% Actual 87% b. Test Score Category I-IIIA percent 67% 60% 60%

Actual 67%

a. The percent Tier 1 High School Degree Graduate (HSDG) is the measure, which is a measure of educational achievement – Total number of Tier 1 (HSDG) non-prior service accessions + Delayed Entry Program (DEP) is compared to total number of non-prior service accessions + DEP for the fiscal year. (DOD target is 90%)

Narrative: Quality goals serve as a screening mechanism; the Army does not directly resource to quality levels. Recruiting efforts focus on high school degree graduates and graduating seniors who are Cat I-IIIA. b. The percent of Cat I-IIIA is the measure – Total number of non-prior service accessions + DEP who scored at or above 50th percentile (Cat

I-IIIA) is compared to total number of non-prior service accessions + DEP for the fiscal year. (DOD target is 60%. Cat I-IIIA – scores at or above 50 on the Armed Forces Qualification Test (measure of aptitude). Cat IV – percentages are not shown as the Services historically have no difficulty meeting the 4% limitation.)

Narrative: Quality goals serve as a screening mechanism; the Army does not directly resource to quality levels. Recruiting efforts focus on high school degree graduates and graduating seniors who are Cat I-IIIA. The implementation of upgraded Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery norms may impact quality achievement in the future as enlistment standards will increase.

Project: Basic Pay - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide for the basic compensation and length of service pay increments of officers on active duty under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 201, 203, 204, 205, and 1009. Funds also provide for the compensation of officers of the reserve components who have entered active duty as members of the active component of the Army.

Part II - Justification of Funds Required The basic compensation is determined by multiplying the projected average number of personnel by grade by the estimated average annual compensation, including length of service increments, for each grade. The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board pay raise effective 1 January 2007 with selective increases for certain warrant officers effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the basic pay requirement is -$438.1 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $673.8 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1 percent pay raise: +$37.1 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$88.8 million. (3) Decrease in total officer man-years of -9,214: -$548.8 million. (4) Grade structure changes: +$0.6 million. (5) Change in basic pay rates (longevity): -$15.8 million.

Project: Retired Pay Accrual - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for the Department of Defense's contribution to its Military Retirement Fund, in accordance with 10 U.S.C 1466. Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The budget estimates are derived as a product of:

(a) The DOD Actuary approved full-time Normal Cost Percentage (NCP) of basic pay is 26.5 percent for FY 2007.

(b) The total amount of the basic pay expected to be paid during the fiscal year to members of the Active Army.

The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board pay raise effective 1 January 2007 with selective increases for certain warrant officers effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the retired pay accrual requirement is -$114.5 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $178.1 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1 percent pay raise: +$9.8 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$23.6 million. (3) Decrease in officer man-years: -$143.9 million. (4) Grade structure changes: +$0.2 million. (5) Change in basic pay rates (longevity): -$4.2 million.

Project: Incentive Pay for Hazardous Duty - Officers Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide pay to officers under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 301 for these types of duty: Flight Aviation Service (Rated Officers) - includes rated aviators, who are entitled to continuous aviation career incentive pay, regardless of current duty assignment, as prescribed by the Aviation Career Incentive Act of 1974. In addition, aviators who are assigned to operational flying positions and flight surgeons, both of whom are required to fly at least four hours of aerial flight each month, are eligible. Aviation Continuation Pay - executes a written agreement to remain on active duty in aviation service for at least one year. Flight Crew Member/Non-crew member (Non-rated Officers) - assigned to a position that requires at least four hours of aerial flight each month. Non-crew members perform duties directly related to the in-flight mission of the aircraft, e.g., ground liaison officers, aviation maintenance technicians, or aero medical physician’s assistants. The duties performed by crew members are essential to the mission of the aircraft, e.g., aerial observers and airborne electrical equipment sensor operators. Parachute - assigned to a permanent parachute position or airborne unit which requires parachute jumping as an essential part of military duty, or while undergoing airborne-type training, or performing short-term parachute duty. Continuous payment of hazardous duty pay for parachute duty requires at least one parachute jump every three months. Pay for the short-term parachute duty is prorated based on the duration of the period for which parachute jumping is required. High Altitude Low Opening Jump Pay - assigned to a permanent military free-fall position which requires parachute jumping from at least 2,500 feet with a planned delay between exit and opening as an essential part of military duties, or while undergoing military free-fall type training at the US Army Military Free-fall Course at the US Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare School. Soldiers must be graduates of military free-fall course or undergoing training for such designation. They must also be required by orders to engage in military free-fall jumps from an aircraft in flight and perform the specified minimum jumps to be entitled to pay. Proficiency requirements will remain the same as static line requirements. Demolition of Explosives - assigned to a position, which requires the member, as his primary duty, to demolish by the use of explosives, objects, obstacles, or explosives; or recover and render harmless, by disarming or demolition, explosives, which failed to function as, intended

or which become a potential hazard. Demolition pay is limited to those serving in Specialty 91E (Explosive Ordnance Disposal Officer). Toxic Pesticides Exposure – for duty performed while assigned to entomology, pest control, pest management, or preventive medicine functions for a period of 30 consecutive days or more; that requires a member to perform any calendar month a fumigation task utilizing phosphine, sulfuryl fluoride, hydrogen cyanide, methyl bromide, or a fumigant of comparable high acute toxicity and hazard potential. Experimental Stress - serving as a human test subject in thermal stress experiments at Natick Laboratories, Natick, MA. The tests conducted include development of equipment (mostly clothing) and physiological testing. Also low pressure, high altitude chamber training is conducted at the US Army Aero medical Center; Fort Rucker, AL. and the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology; Washington, DC. Chemical Munitions - this is a peacetime hazardous incentive pay for members of the uniformed services whose primary duties require the routine physical handling of chemical munitions or chemical surety material. Routine physical handling must be incident to manufacturing, maintenance, storage, testing, laboratory analysis, transportation, surveillance, assembly, disassembly, demilitarization, or disposal of chemical munitions or chemical surety material. This incentive pay is not authorized for individuals who handle the individual components of binary munitions, dilute solutions of toxic chemicals, riot control agents, chemical defoliants, herbicides, smoke, flame and incendiaries, or industrial chemicals. Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The projected average number of payments is based on the total spaces where each type of pay is authorized to meet force structure requirements. The compensation for aviation service (rated officers) is obtained by multiplying the projected average number of personnel authorized for this type of pay by rates established in 37 U.S.C. 301a for years of aviation service or years of officer service to include a specified number of years in jobs which justify flying. The compensation for all other types of incentive pay is arrived at by multiplying the projected number of each type by the statutory rate. The net change in incentive pays for the number of officers receiving aviation career incentive pay requirement is -$9.7 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $11.9 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

Payment to service members is authorized by revisions to 37 U.S.C. 403. BAH inflation rate for FY 07 is 6 percent. Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

With congressional support, the Army’s Residential Communities and Barracks Modernization

program initiatives has had dramatic effect on improving quality of life for our Soldiers and their families. The Army already has privatized 64,000 housing units with a projected end state inventory of over 82,500 family housing units. Programs like the Residential Communities initiative will greatly help in cost savings and the Army’s efforts to retain soldiers and families. The net change in the BAH requirement is -$248.3 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $190.0 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006 6.0% increase for housing cost growth for BAH Domestic rates (with dependents and without dependents categories): +$14.4 million.

(2) The 1 Jan 2007 increase for housing cost growth for BAH Domestic rates (with dependents and without dependents categories): +$46.0 million.

(3) Decrease in total man-years: -$118.9 million. (4) Changes in grade structure: -$0.1 million. (5) Increase in BAH Overseas Rate Change: +$22.2 million. (6) Decrease in BAH Domestic payments: -$189.3 million. (7) Decrease in BAH Overseas payments: -$22.6 million.

Project: Basic Allowance for Subsistence - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide for subsistence allowance authorized by 37 U.S.C. 402 and P.L. 96-343. All officers, regardless of dependency status and pay grade, are paid a monthly Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS) at the same rate. BAS inflation rate for FY 07 is 1.9 percent.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Subsistence allowance costs are obtained by multiplying the projected average number eligible for the allowance by the annual statutory rate. The net change in the basic allowance for subsistence is -$17.4 million from FY 2006 to FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $23.7 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Decrease in officer man-years: -$20.8 million. (2) Change in annual pay rate: +$3.4 million.

Project: Station Allowance Overseas - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide payment of per diem allowance to officers on duty outside the United States considering all elements of the cost of living, including quarters, subsistence, and other necessary incidental expenses as prescribed by joint travel regulations and authorized under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 405.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The total Overseas Station Allowance includes Cost of Living and Temporary Lodging Allowances. Overseas station allowance (OSA) payments are determined by multiplying the projected number of personnel eligible for each type of allowance by an estimated average rate. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates have a direct impact on overseas station allowances. This is especially true in the case of Germany. The overseas station allowances are based on an exchange rate of 0.8530 Euro/$1 US Dollar. The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain warrant officers effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the station allowance overseas requirement is -$4.0 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $11.9 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1 percent pay raise: +$.7 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$2.0 million. (3) Increase in foreign currency pay rates: +$0.4 million. (4) Temporary lodging allowance decrease in number receiving: -$7.1 million.

Project: CONUS Cost of Living Allowance - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide payment of cost of living allowance (COLA) to soldiers who are assigned to high cost areas in the continental United States (CONUS). A high cost area is defined as a locality where the cost of living exceeds the average cost of living in CONUS by an established threshold percentage during a base period. The threshold percentage is established by the Secretary of Defense but cannot be less than eight percent. The current established threshold is 108 percent of the national cost of living average. The amount of COLA payable is the product of spendable income (based on regular military compensation level) times the difference between the COLA index for the individual’s high cost area and the threshold percentage. The FY 1995 DOD Authorization Act authorized this allowance.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested CONUS COLA payments are determined by multiplying the projected number of personnel eligible by an estimated average rate. The net change for CONUS COLA is -$0.9 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $0.9 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget and a decrease of number receiving CONUS COLA. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Clothing Allowances - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The requested funds will provide for the initial payment and supplemental allowance for purchases of required uniforms under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 415 and 416. Also included are funds for civilian clothing allowance for officers assigned to a permanent duty station outside the United States who are required to wear civilian clothing in the performance of official duty in accordance with 37 U.S.C. 419.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The estimated number of payments is based on the projected gains into the Army and the anticipated overseas requirements where individuals are required to wear civilian clothing in the performance of official duty. Allowances for uniform and clothing purchases are developed by multiplying the projected number eligible for each type of allowance by the applicable rate. The net change in the Uniform Clothing requirement is -$0.6 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $0.7 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget and the number receiving uniform clothing. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Family Separation Allowances - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds are to provide family separation payments to officers with dependents on duty outside the U.S. or in Alaska for added separation expenses under two circumstances: (1) Travel of dependents to overseas duty station is not authorized and the member maintains two homes, one in CONUS for the family and one overseas for member. Payment is made at the monthly quarter’s allowance rate authorized for a member of the same grade without dependents. (2) When a member with dependents makes a permanent change of station, is on temporary duty travel, or on board ship for 30 days or more, either in CONUS or overseas, and the travel of dependents to the duty station is not authorized and dependents do not reside at or near the duty station.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The estimated number of payments is based on execution data projected into the future and modified to reflect anticipated overseas stationing requirements. Allowances for family separation are determined by multiplying the estimated number of personnel eligible for each type of family separation allowance by the statutory rate applicable. The net change in the family separation allowances is -$10.5 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $4.1 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Rate increase for FSA-I: +$0.2 million. (2) Decrease in number of receiving payments for FSA-II: -$10.7 million.

Project: Separation Payments - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope Severance Pay - payment of non-disability separation pay is authorized to retirement ineligible regular commissioned officers, warrant officers, and members of the reserve component who are involuntarily released from active duty after having completed at least 5 years of active duty. Payment of disability severance pay is authorized to members on active duty who are discharged because of physical disability and who have less than 20 years service and less than 30 percent disability. The FY 1992 National Defense Authorization Act approved two voluntary separation pay programs to use during the force drawdown. The programs apply to both officers and enlisted soldiers who have more than six and less than 20 years of service. The first, voluntary separation incentive (VSI), is an annuity that makes annual payments for twice the number of years served for soldiers who voluntarily leave active duty. The second program, special separation benefits (SSB), provides a lump sum of one and a half times involuntary separation pay (50% more) for soldiers who voluntarily leave active duty. VSI and SSB have been used to reduce involuntary separations. The authority to use VSI/SSB was extended from 30 September 1990 to 30 September 2001 by the FY 1999 National Defense Authorization Act. However, the Army reached its steady state end strength at the end of FY 1999 and has not offered VSI and SSB to any new takers since the end of FY 1999. Congress has extended this authority since 31 December 2001. The FY 1993 National Defense Authorization Act approved an active duty early retirement program for use during the force drawdown. The early retirement program has been used to shape the 15-20 year segment of the force. It has assisted the Army in achieving its drawdown goals of maintaining readiness and treating people fairly. Soldiers separated under the early retirement program receive the same benefits as individuals with 20 or more years of service. However, their retired pay is reduced by one percent for each year that they are short of 20 years of active duty. The early retirement amount is the product of 2.5 percent times years of service times basic pay times reduction factor. For the officers who leave under the early retirement program, the Army is required to establish a sub-account within the Military Personnel Appropriation to fund all early retirement payments up front in the Military Personnel Appropriation to cover the entire initial period, which is defined as that period equal to the difference between 20 years and the number of years completed by the member. The authority to use the early retirement program was extended from 1 Oct 1999 to 1 Oct 2001 by the FY 1999 National Defense Authorization Act. However, the Army reached its steady state end strength at the end of FY 1999 and has not offered early retirement to any new takers since the end of FY 1999.

Accrued Leave Payments - members are authorized 30 days of ordinary leave annually. They may have accumulated a maximum of no more than 60 days unused leave at the beginning of any fiscal year. Upon retirement or separation, members are paid for unused accrued leave at the rate of basic pay to which entitled at time of release. Effective 10 Feb 1976, a member cannot be paid for more than 60 days of accrued leave during his military career. This limitation does not include payments for accrued leave made before that date.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Separation payments are determined by multiplying the projected number eligible for each type of payment by the estimated average payment applicable. Accumulated leave payments are made based upon leave accrued as of 1 Sep 1976. For leave accumulated prior to 1 Sep 1976 and retained throughout the career, payments include basic pay, basic allowance for subsistence, and basic allowance for quarters. For leave accumulated after 1 Sep 1976, to include the lowering of leave balances prior to 1 Sep 1976, the rate payable is basic pay only. Leave payments will not exceed the career total of 60 days. Severance pay for promotion Passover, for separation for cause, and for disability severance pay is 10 percent of the product of (a) years of active service and (b) 12 times the monthly basic pay to which the member was entitled at the time of discharge or release from active duty. The Special Separation Bonus (SSB) amount is based on annual base pay times 15 percent times years of service. The VSI (annuity) is a product of annual base pay times 2.5 percent times years of service and is paid for twice the number of years served, without any cost of living adjustments. The National Defense Authorization Acts for FY 1992 and FY 1993 required the establishment of a VSI fund effective 1 Jan 1993 from which VSI payments will be made. The Act further required the DOD Board of Actuaries to determine: (1) the amount necessary to liquidate the original unfunded liability, i.e., those personnel accepting VSI benefits prior to 1 Jan 1993 and (2) the total present value costs necessary to fund those members accepting VSI benefits after 1 Jan 1993. The FY 2000 Defense Authorization Act provides for a system that will give the soldier the option to retire under the pre-1986 military retirement system or accept a one-time $30,000 lump sum bonus and remain under the redux retirement plan. The lump sum bonus has been paid directly from the Military Personnel appropriation since FY 2001.

The FY 07 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain warrant officers effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the separation pay requirement is -$0.8 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $9.1 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1 percent pay raise: +$1.5 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$.7 million. (3) Decrease in office losses reduces requirement for lump sum terminal leave, disability

severance pay, and involuntary separation pay: -$3.0 million. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Social Security Tax - Employer's Obligation - Officers

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for employer's tax to the Social Security Administration as required by the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The FICA tax is developed by multiplying the total earnings for FICA tax purposes by the applicable percent. The old age, survivor, and disability insurance (OASDI) rate is 6.2% and the Hospital Insurance (HI) rate is 1.45%. The maximum amounts of earnings per individual on which tax is payable are: Calendar Year OASDI Base Medicare Base 2005 $90,000 No upper limit 2006 $93,000 No upper limit 2007 $96,600 No upper limit The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain warrant officers effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the FICA tax requirement is -$33.3 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $47.5 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1 percent pay raise: +$3.0 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$6.2 million. (3) Force manning changes: -$42.5 million.

Project: Basic Pay - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for the basic compensation and length of service pay increments of enlisted personnel on active duty under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 201, 203, 205, and 1009. Also included is the compensation of enlisted personnel of the reserve components, who have entered active duty as members of the active component of the Army.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The basic compensation is determined by multiplying the projected average number of personnel by grade by the estimated average annual compensation, including length of service increments for each grade. The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007.

The net change in the basic pay is -$851.2 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $1.5 billion in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1% pay raise: +$81.0 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$187.3 million. (3) Increase in Grade structure change: +$0.1 million. (4) Decrease in total enlisted man-years of -35,671: -$962.0 million. (5) Change in basic pay rates (longevity): -$157.6 million.

Project: Retired Pay Accrual - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for the Department of Defense's contribution to its Military Retirement Fund, in accordance with 10 U.S.C. 1466.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The budget estimates are derived as a product of:

(a) The DOD Actuary-approved full-time Normal Cost Percentage (NCP) of basic pay is 26.5 percent for FY 2006 and FY 2007.

(b) The total amount of the basic pay expected to be paid during the fiscal year to members of the Active Army.

The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the retired pay accrual requirement is -$229.2 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $398 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget. These changes are based on –

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1% pay raise: +$21.5 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$49.6 million. (3) Increase in Grade structure change: +$0.4 million. (4) Decrease in total man-years: -$254.9 million. (5) Change in basic pay rates (longevity): -$41.8 million.

Project: Health Care Accrual - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds will be used to pay the health care accrual amount into the Department of Defense Medicare-eligible Retiree Health Care Fund (HCA) for the future Medicare-eligible health care costs for current military personnel in accordance with the FY 2001 National Defense Authorization Act (Public Law 106-398).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The budgetary estimates are derived as a product of the approved actuarial rate and the average strength. The estimate for over-65 retirees increased from FY 2004 to FY 2005 by +$265.2 million. The health care accrual budget for FY 2005, was +$2,025.5 million in FY 2005. Beginning in FY 2006 and as authorized by the Ronald W.

Project: Incentive Pay for Hazardous Duty - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide for pay to enlisted personnel under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 301 for these types of duty: Crew Member - assigned to a position which requires at least four hours of aerial flight each month. The duties are essential to the operation of aircraft in-flight, or the duties are required to complete specific missions of the aircraft. The members perform duties as crew chiefs, medical airmen, firefighter crash rescue specialists, airborne electronic system operators, and air observers. Non-Crew Member - assigned to a position which requires at least four hours of aerial flight each month. The duties are directly related to in-flight missions of the aircraft and crew members cannot perform the duties. The members perform duties as aircraft maintenance personnel, aerial photographers, helicopter weapons systems repairmen, and medical personnel. Parachute - assigned to a permanent parachute position or airborne unit which requires parachute jumping as an essential part of military duty, or while undergoing airborne type training, or performing short-term parachute duty. Continuous payment of hazardous duty pay for parachute duty requires at least one parachute jump every three months. Pay for periods of short-term parachute duty is prorated based on the duration of the period such duty is required. High Altitude Low Opening (HALO) Jump Pay - assigned to a permanent military position which requires parachute jumping from at least 2,500 feet with a planned delay between exit and opening as an essential part of military duties, or while undergoing military free-fall type training at the US Army John F. Kennedy Special Warfare School. Soldiers must be graduates of the US Army military free-fall course under the proponency of the Commander, US Army JFK Special Warfare School or undergoing training for such designation. They must also be required by competent orders to engage in military free-fall parachute jumping from an aircraft in aerial flight and perform the specified minimum number of jumps to be entitled to pay. Proficiency requirements will remain the same as static line requirements. Demolition of Explosives - assigned to a position which requires the member as his primary duty to demolish, by use of objects, obstacles, or explosives; or recover and render harmless, by disarming or demolition, explosives which failed to function as intended or which have become a potential hazard.

Experimental Stress - serves as a human test subject in thermal stress experiments at Natick Laboratories; Natick, MA. The tests conducted include development of equipment (mostly clothing) and physiological testing. Also, low pressure, high altitude chamber training is conducted at the US Army Aero medical Center; Fort Rucker, Alabama. Toxic Fuel - assigned to a position on a Propellant Draining Kit (PDK) Team that requires handling and maintaining the propellants unsymmetrical dimethol hydrazine and inhibited red-fuming nitric acid used in the Lance missile system. Toxic Pesticides Exposure - for duty performed while assigned to entomology, pest control, pest management, or preventive medicine functions for a period of 30 consecutive days or more; that requires a member to perform in any calendar month a fumigation task utilizing phosphate, sulfuryl fluoride, hydrogen cyanide, methyl bromide, or a fumigant of comparable high acute toxicity and hazard potential. Chemical Munitions Handlers - this is a peacetime hazardous duty incentive pay for members of the uniformed services whose primary duties require the routine physical handling of chemical munitions or chemical surety material. Routine physical handling must be incident to manufacturing, maintenance, storage, testing, laboratory analysis, transportation, surveillance, assembly, disassembly, demilitarization, or disposal of chemical munitions or chemical surety material. This incentive pay is not authorized for individuals who handle the individual components of binary munitions, diluted solutions of toxic chemicals, riot control agents, chemical defoliants, herbicides, smoke, flame and incendiaries, or industrial chemicals.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The projected average number of payments is based on the total spaces where each type of pay is authorized to meet force structure requirements. The compensation for hazardous duty incentive pay is computed by multiplying the projected average number of each type by the statutory rate.

The net change in the incentive pay requirement totals -$13.9 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $14.6 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding of which, $10.7 million was for Parachute Jump pay that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

These changes are based on –

(1) Decrease in the number of soldiers receiving Flying Duty Crew pay: -$ 1.2 (2) Decrease in the number of soldiers receiving other incentive pay: -$12.7

Project: Reenlistment Bonus - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope

The purpose of the retention program is maintaining the quality force by retaining good Soldiers. The Retention Bonus programs increase the number of reenlistments in critical skills characterized by current or projected strength levels insufficient to adequately man the force. The programs help draw people from overage skills to shortage skills through the bonus extension and retraining program.

The Selective Reenlistment Bonus (SRB) Program is authorized under U.S.C 37, Section 308.

Under the law, a member of a uniformed service with at least 17 months of continuous active duty but not more than 18 years of active duty, is qualified in a critical skill and reenlists at least three years may be paid a bonus. The bonus will not exceed six months of the base pay multiplied by the additional obligated service (not to exceed six years) up to a maximum of $90,000. Army policy has set the maximum SRB allowed to be paid at $40,000 and a maximum of 16 years of service.

The Critical Skills Retention Bonus (CSRB) Program is authorized under U.S.C 37, Section

323. Under the law, a member of a uniformed service who is qualified in a critical skill and reenlists for a period of at least one year may be paid a bonus. The member may receive multiple bonuses under this provision; however, the total amount may not exceed $200,000. OSD policy has set the maximum at $150,000 for a six year reenlistment for Special Operations Soldiers beyond 20 years of service.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The Selective Reenlistment Bonus Program is a key component in MOS/grade cell force

alignment initiatives. The focus of the SRB Program is to reenlist sufficient specialists and sergeants to overcome or prevent present and future shortfalls in sergeant and staff sergeant manning. Shortfalls in these grades have a direct negative impact on the combat and operational readiness of Army units.

For shortage skills, we continually evaluate the Retention Programs and offer bonuses

where appropriate. Other adjustments to align the force include: reclassification of soldiers into shortage skills, and increasing promotion opportunities to soldiers in shortage skills. In overage skills, the Army constrains promotion opportunity, constrains reclassification of soldiers into these skills, restricts fully qualified prior service personnel from enlisting in these skills, and does not permit retention beyond the Retention Control Point (RCP). The Army will continue to focus and apply management initiatives to develop an optimal force structure.

The following are the Army's most critically imbalanced skills as of January 2006

(restricted to MOS with authorizations in at least four grade cells): Shortage MOS

MOS Title 13F Fire Support Specialist

13W Fiend Artillery Meteorological (FA MET) Crewmember 18 Special Forces (Series) 31E Internment/Resettlement Specialist 74D Chemical Operations Specialist 88M Motor Transport Operator 89D Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) Specialist 91W Health Care Specialist 92W Water Treatment Specialist 96U Unmanned Aerial Operator 97E Human Intelligence (HUMINT) Collector 98G Cryptologic Communications Interceptor/Locator As of FY 2005, all SRB payments are paid as lump sum and Anniversary payments are for

contracts entered into prior to FY 2005. The net change in the incentive pay requirement is -$316.3 million between FY 2006 and FY

2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $319 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

Project: Enlistment Bonus - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope Enlistment Bonuses are used to attract high quality recruits, as defined by the Armed Service Vocational Aptitude Battery (ASVAB) test scores, into designated Army skills, which are difficult to fill with qualified enlistees. The payment is authorized by 37 U.S.C. 309, which allows up to $40,000 for an enlistment. The Army pays up to $10,000 at their first permanent duty station after successful completion of basic and skill training, then equal periodic payments, if required. Army is paying the $40,000 bonus to recruits who select a selective critical MOS and are willing to ship to the training within 30 days.

New Payments - payments are made to individuals who enter active duty and complete skill training during the same fiscal year.

Residual Payments - payments are made to individuals who entered the service in previous

fiscal years. An average of four months elapse before a Soldier completes skill training and payments are authorized.

Anniversary Payments - by Army policy, up to $10,000 may be paid initially in lump sum. Remaining amounts above $10,000 are paid in equal installments on the Soldier’s anniversary date over the remaining years of his contract. These payments are contractual obligations paid in the year earned.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The Enlistment Bonus Program is designed to expand penetration into the higher quality markets. The Army offers various different levels (amounts) of the enlistment bonus based upon the criticality of the MOS and length of the enlistment contract. Bonuses compliment the top reasons (pay, tuition for college) for considering enlisting in the Army according to youth polls.

The program is tied to a level commensurate with the programmed recruiting mission. These

funding levels are critical to attaining Army quality goals during a period of a low unemployment market and low positive propensity of the youth market to enlist. The Enlistment Bonus Program reflects Army Leadership and Congressional continued reliance on the enlistment bonus to channel applicants into critical MOS training seats at the required time to accomplish accession requirements.

The net change in the Enlistment Bonuses requirement is -$37.4 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $105 million FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget. These changes are based on –

(1) Decrease in the number of soldiers receiving new payments: -$42.3 million. (2) Increase in the number of soldiers receiving Residual payments: +$2.1 million. (3) Increase in the number of soldiers receiving Anniversary payments: $2.8 million.

Project: Educational Benefits

Part I - Purpose and Scope The Army College Fund (ACF) is governed by Title 38 U.S.C., Chapter 30. The ACF is used to attract high quality high school diploma graduates into designated Army skills which are difficult to fill with qualified enlistees. The program will fund additional and supplemental benefit payments above a basic benefit (the Montgomery GI Bill) to be budgeted by the Department of Veteran Affairs (DVA). This program is budgeted on an accrual basis by the DOD. The DOD Board of Actuaries establishes per capita normal costs and amortization rates for each fiscal year. Funds are for the payment to the Department of Defense (DOD) Educational Benefits Trust Fund. Actual benefit payments to individuals will be made by the DVA from funds transferred from the Trust Fund account.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested All individuals entering active duty after July 1, 1985 (including those in the Delayed Entry Program) are eligible to receive additional and supplemental educational assistance at the discretion of the Secretary of Defense. Basic eligibility to qualify for these educational benefits is contingent upon the soldier electing to participate in the basic program - the Montgomery GI Bill. Exceptions to eligibility are those who have received a commission from a Service academy or completed a ROTC Scholarship Program. The ACF Program is designed to expand penetration into the quality market and distribute quality among the 200 plus initial entry military occupational specialties (MOS). Offering an ACF, especially at the higher levels, allows the Army to channel applicants into critical MOSs and support readiness. It also compliments one of the top reasons -- tuition for college -- for considering enlisting in the Army according to youth polls. The program is tied to a level commensurate with the programmed recruiting mission. These funding levels are critical to attaining Army quality goals during a period of a lower unemployment economy and low positive propensity of the youth market to enlist. It has become increasingly difficult to recruit sufficient Soldiers to sustain a quality force. In P.L. 107-103, Congress increased the amount of the basic GI Bill benefit paid by Veterans Affairs and now the basic benefit increases annually with the Consumer Price Index.

Educational Benefits increased by $17.9 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007 due to an increase in

the per capita amounts and amortization payment amounts for certain educational benefits.

Project: Loan Repayment Program - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The Loan Repayment Program (LRP) is authorized by PL 99-145, Section 2171. Guidelines for the LRP are contained in Chapter 109, Title 10, United States Code. The LRP pays for federal student loans guaranteed by the Department of Education under the Higher Education Act of 1965 up to a maximum of $65,000 (limited by Army policy). The LRP is an enlistment incentive designed to increase Test Score Category I-IIIA enlistments and attract recruits into designated Army skills, which are difficult to fill with qualified enlistees. The LRP repays $1,500 or one-third of the qualified loan whichever is greater, for every year of service.

Part II - Justification and Funds Requested According to the University of Michigan Annual Monitoring the Future Survey, 80% of high school seniors plan to attend a four-year college and are applying for loans in increasing numbers. Conversely, the College Board has determined that 50% of all students entering four-year colleges are not enrolled after two years, primarily due to financial reasons. The LRP is an effective tool for penetrating the college market, especially that segment that have opted out at a point prior to graduation due to financial constraints. The Loan Repayment Program decreased by -$.2 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007 due to the number of participants in the program. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Basic Allowance for Housing - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope Congress approved in the FY 1998 National Defense Authorization Act the payment of a basic allowance for housing (BAH) to service members. The overseas housing allowance (OHA) payment, formerly located in overseas station allowances, moved into this section by a change in law. The continental United States, Alaska and Hawaii BAH is included in BAH Domestic, while the overseas housing allowance is called BAH Overseas. Payment to service members is authorized by revisions to 37 U.S.C. 403.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The net change in the basic allowance for housing requirement is -$597.8 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. The decrease is primarily due to the $496 million in FY 2006 Title IX funding that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget. These changes are based on –

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 6.0% housing cost growth: +$32.0 million. (2) The FY 2007, 6.0% housing cost growth: +$101.7 million. (3) Decrease in Grade structure change: -$.4 million. (4) Decrease in total man-year: -$227.1 million. (5) Decrease in percent receiving: -$504.0 million.

Project: Station Allowance Overseas - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide payment of a per diem allowance to enlisted personnel on duty outside the United States considering all elements of the cost of living, subsistence and other necessary incidental expenses as prescribed by joint travel regulations and authorized under provisions of 37 U.S.C. 405.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Overseas Station Allowance payments are determined by multiplying the projected number of personnel eligible for each type of allowance by the estimated average rate applicable. Fluctuations in currency exchange rates have a direct impact on Overseas Station Allowance. This has been especially true in the case of Germany. The estimates for overseas station allowances are based on rates of exchange of €0.8530 Euro/$1 US. The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the overseas station allowance requirements decreased by -$24.8 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. These changes are based on –

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1% pay-raise: $2.1 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$5.0 million. (3) Decrease in original number: -$25.6 million (4) Rate change amount: -$0.8 million.

Project: CONUS Cost of Living Allowance - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide payment of a cost of living allowance (COLA) to soldiers who are assigned to high cost areas in the continental United States (CONUS). A high cost area is defined as a locality where the cost of living exceeds the average cost of living in CONUS by an established threshold percentage during a base period. The threshold percentage is established by the Secretary of Defense but cannot be less than eight percent. The current established threshold is 108 percent of the national cost of living average. The amount of COLA payable is the product of spendable income (based on regular military compensation level) multiplied by the difference between the COLA index for the individual’s high cost area and the threshold percentage. The FY 1995 DoD Authorization Act authorized the allowance.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested CONUS COLA payments are determined by multiplying the projected number of personnel eligible by an estimated rate. From FY 2006 and FY 2007 the CONUS COLA requirement decreased by -$3.9 million based on decreased number of programmatic requirements. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Clothing Allowances - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested will provide for payment to enlisted personnel for prescribed clothing authorized by the Secretary of Defense under the provisions of 37 U.S.C. 418 including:

(1) Initial Clothing Allowance when authorized by competent orders. (2) For cash payment of the Clothing Basic Maintenance Allowance authorized from the

sixth month of entrance on duty through the thirty-sixth month and/or cash payment of the Standard Maintenance Allowance authorized from the thirty-seventh month through the completion of the enlistment.

(3) For cost of Issue-In-Kind in areas where clothing maintenance allowance is not

authorized. (4) Supplementary Clothing Allowances for personnel assigned to special organizations or

details where the nature of the duties to be performed requires additional items of individual clothing not required for the majority of enlisted personnel.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The net change in the enlisted clothing allowance or in-kind issue requirement decreased by -$52.3 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007.

(1) Initial Allowance increased by +$2.8 million. (2) Maintenance Allowance decreased by -$39.9 million. (3) Supplementary allowance decreased by $-15.6 million. (4) Issue-in-kind increased by $+.4 million.

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested are to provide for family separation allowance (FSA) payments to enlisted personnel with dependents on duty outside the United States or in Alaska for added separation expenses under two circumstances: (1) Travel of dependents to overseas duty station is not authorized and the member maintains two homes, one in CONUS for the member’s family and one overseas for the member. Payment is made at the monthly quarter’s allowance rate authorized for a member of the same grade without dependents. (2) When a member with dependents makes a permanent change of station (PCS) or is on temporary duty (TDY) travel, or on board ship for thirty days or more either in CONUS or overseas and the travel of dependents to the member’s duty station is not authorized and dependents do not reside at or near duty station. The payment is $250 per month for both FSA-PCS and FSA-TDY (37 U.S.C. 427).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The estimated number of payments is based on historical performance and programmed requirements for overseas stationing. Allowances for family separation payments are determined by multiplying the estimated number of personnel for each type of family separation allowance by the applicable statutory rate. The net change in the family separation allowance requirement decreased by -$11.8 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. These changes are based on –

(1) FSA-I decreased by -$1.7 million due to a change in the numbers of families receiving separation payments.

(2) FSA-II (PCS) decreased by -$5.5 million. (3) FSA-II (TDY) decreased by $-4.5 million.

Project: Separation Payments - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope Accrued Leave Payments - members are authorized 30 days of ordinary leave annually. They may accumulate a maximum of no more than 120 days unused leave at the beginning of any fiscal year. Upon retirement or separation, members are paid for unused accrued leave at the rate of basic pay to which entitled at time of release. Effective 10 February 76, a member cannot be paid for more than 60 days of accrued leave during his military career. This limitation does not include payments for accrued leave made before that date. Severance Pay - Disability - Disability Severance Pay is authorized to members on active duty who are discharged because of physical disability and who have less than 20 years of service and less than 30 percent disability. Severance Pay - Non Disability - Commencing in FY 1991, non-disability severance pay is authorized to members on active duty who are involuntarily separated from service, are not eligible for retirement pay, and meet minimum time-in-service requirements. The FY 1992 National Defense Authorization Act approved two voluntary separation pay programs to use during the force drawdown. The programs apply to both officers and enlisted soldiers who have more than six and less than 20 years of service. The first, voluntary separation incentive (VSI) is an annuity that makes annual payments for twice the number of years served for soldiers who voluntarily leave active duty. The second program, special separation benefits (SSB), provides a lump sum of one and a half times involuntary separation pay (50% more) for soldiers who voluntarily leave active duty. VSI and SSB have been used to reduce involuntary separations. The authority to use VSI/SSB was extended from 30 Sep 1990 to 30 Sep 2001 by the FY 1999 National Defense Authorization Act. However, the Army will reach its steady state end strength at the end of FY 1999 and will not offer VSI and SSB to any new takers after FY 1999. The FY 1993 National Defense Authorization Act approved an active duty early retirement program for use during the force drawdown. The early retirement program has been used to shape the 15-20 year segment of the force. It has assisted the Army in achieving its drawdown goals of maintaining readiness and treating people fairly. Soldiers separated under the early retirement program receive the same benefits as individuals with 20 or more years of service. However, their retired pay is reduced by one percent for each year that they are short of 20 years of active duty. The early retirement amount is the product of 2.5 percent times years of service times basic pay times reduction factor. For the enlisted personnel who leave under the early retirement program, the Army is required to establish a sub account within the Military Personnel Appropriation to fund all early retirement payments up front in the Military Personnel Appropriation to cover the entire initial period, which is defined as that period equal to the difference between 20 years and the number of years completed by the member. The authority to use the early retirement program was extended from 1 Oct 1999 to 1 Oct 2001 by the FY 1999

National Defense Authorization Act. However, the Army having reached steady state end strength at the end of FY 1999 and has not offered early retirement to any new takers since FY 1999. The FY 2005 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), Section 641, Subsection (c) of Section 1407 of Title 10, United States Code, requires the computation of high-36 month average retirement pay for reserve component members, retired for disability while on active duty or dying while on active duty, to be similar to the active component.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Severance payments are determined by multiplying the projected number eligible for each type of payment by the estimated average payment applicable. Accumulated leave payments are made based upon leave accrued as of 1 September 76. For leave accumulated prior to 1 September 76, and retained throughout the career, payments include basic pay, $1.25 per day quarters allowance to members in pay grade E-5 to E-9 with dependents, and 70 cents per day to all members for subsistence. For leave accumulated after 1 September 76, to include lowering of leave balances prior to 1 September 76, the rate payable is basic pay only. Leave payments will not exceed a career total of 60 days. Severance pay for disability is computed at two months basic pay of grade held at time of discharge multiplied by the number of years active service, but not more than 12. The SSB amount is from the annual base pay times 15 percent times years of service. The VSI (annuity) is a product of annual base pay times 2.5 percent times years of service and is paid for twice the number of years served, without any cost of living adjustments. Donations are computed by multiplying the programmed number of releases from confinement and the number discharged for fraudulent enlistments by $25.00. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY 1992 and FY 1993 required the establishment of a VSI Fund effective 1 January 93 from which VSI payments will be made. The act further required the board of actuaries to determine: (1) the amount necessary to liquidate the original unfunded liability, i.e., those personnel accepting VSI benefits prior to 1 January 93 and (2) the total present value costs necessary to fund those members accepting VSI benefits after 1 January 93. The FY 2000 Authorization Act provides for a system that will give the soldier the option to retire under the pre-1986 military retirement system or accept a one-time $30,000 lump sum payment and remain under the Redux retirement plan. The lump sum payments began being paid from the Military Personnel appropriation in FY 2001 and full implementation of the program is reflected in the budget from FY 2002 into the future. The FY 2000 Authorization Act provides for special compensation for uniformed service retirees who completed a minimum 20 years of creditable service for computing the amount of retired pay, and also had incurred a qualifying combat related disability. A qualifying disability includes a war related service disability rated at a minimum 60 percent, or a minimum 10 percent disability for which they received a Purple Heart. The amount of the compensation is equal to the veterans’ disability compensation based solely on the combat related disability. The FY 2005 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) provides for a member of a reserve component who is entitled to retired pay, the member’s high-three average is computed in the same manner for an active duty member entitled to retired pay.

The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007. The requirement for separation pay changes by -$13.2 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007 is based on-

(1) Annualization of the 3.1%, 1 Jan 2006: +$1.5 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$4.3 million. (3) Decrease in the numbers of soldiers receiving Separation Pay: -$23.8 million. (4) Rate change: +$4.8 million.

Project: Social Security Tax - Employer's Obligation - Enlisted

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for the employer's tax to the Social Security Administration as required by the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The FICA tax is developed by multiplying the total earnings for FICA tax purposes by the applicable percentage. The Old Age, Survivor, and Disability Insurance (OASDI) rate is 6.2 percent and the Hospital Insurance (HI) rate is 1.45 percent. The maximum amount of earnings per individual on which tax is payable are: Calendar year OASDI Base Medicare Base 2005 $90,000 No upper limit 2006 $93,000 No upper limit 2007 $96,600 No upper limit The FY 2007 military pay raise reflects a 2.2% across-the-board increase with selective increases for certain mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007. The net change in the FICA requirement is -$55.2 million between FY 2006 and FY 2007. These changes are based on –

(1) Annualization of the 1 Jan 2006, 3.1% pay raise: +$6.2 million. (2) The 1 Jan 2007, 2.2 percent pay raise: +$14.3 million. (3) G.I. Bill Offset change from FY 2006 to FY 2007: +$.4 million (4) Decrease in man-year: -$64.0 million (5) FICA adjustment (longevity): -$12.1million

Project: Academy Cadets

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested provide for basic pay and allowances of Academy Cadets and commuted ration allowance under the provisions of 37 U.S.C. 201, 203, and 422. The budget also includes the employer's share of the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA) tax.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

Section 203(c) of Title 37 U.S.C. was amended by Sec 612 of the FY 2001 National Defense Authorization Act. This amendment, effective 1 October 2001, set the basic pay rate of the Cadet to be "at the monthly rate equal to 35 percent of the basic pay of a commissioned officer in the pay grade O-1 with less than two years of service." The funding requirement is determined by applying annual rates to the projected man-years. The cadet funding requirements change by +$2.4 million from FY 2006 to FY 2007 is based on:

(1) Authorized pay raise of 2.2% increase: +$1.3 million. (2) Increased requirement for subsistence: +$.197 million. (3) Operational rations usage change: +$.087 million. (4) Increase in number of cadets: +$.830 million

Note: FY 2005 Actual does not match official financial records. An additional $3.7 million was applied to correct cadet base pay. The pay obligation was posted in error to Operational PCS.

Project: Subsistence of Enlisted Personnel

Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested for this budget activity are for the payment of authorized Basic Allowances for Subsistence (BAS) and Subsistence-in-Kind (SIK). Subsistence in this account is for the active duty enlisted Soldier. Subsistence-in-Kind includes the cost of procuring subsistence for garrison dining facilities (Subsistence in Messes), operational rations, and augmentation rations. Funded reimbursements are cash collections from dining facilities made by civilians and by Soldiers who receive Basic Allowance for Subsistence. The 2001 National Defense Authorization Act added a Family Subsistence Supplemental Allowance for members with dependents who are food-stamp eligible and make application for such allowance. Part II - Justification of Funds Requested This budget activity includes the Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS) paid to the enlisted Soldier. BAS is paid under the following conditions: (1) when authorized to mess separately, (2) while on authorized leave, and (3) when subsistence-in-kind is not available. All enlisted Soldiers are paid their full BAS entitlement, but Single Soldiers who reside on Army installations with dining facilities have a portion of their BAS collected from their pay and are directed to subsist in Army dining facilities. This budget activity is based on the delegation of authority in Title 10 U.S.C, Chap. (435) Sec. 4651(c). Basic Allowance for Subsistence changed in FY 1998 when the Department of Defense proposed and the Congress enacted reform in the Basic Allowance for Subsistence (BAS) that linked BAS to the Department of Agriculture (DoA) food plan indices. Since FY 2002 rate changes have been tied to the annual USDA food cost index. All enlisted members (except recruits and holdees) will be entitled to BAS. Between FY 2006 AND FY 2007 BAS costs increase $43.8 million. Subsistence-In-Kind (SIK) funds subsistence to feed enlisted Soldiers their daily food rations in accordance with Title 10 U.S.C. This program funds meals provided in garrison dining facilities (subsistence in messes), operational rations, and augmentation rations. In FY 2004 $160,000 and in FY 2005 $260,000 reimbursement for cost of feeding civilians and contractors in OIF/OEF dining facilities was made from Operations and Maintenance, Army accounts. From FY 2006 to FY 2007 the base program for Subsistence-in-Kind costs increased due to inflation; however, the FY 2006 budget shown has been increased by Title IX funds provided early in the fiscal year to provide sufficient resources until supplemental dollars are added to fund the cost of contingency operations. Subsistence-in-Messes is the cost of bulk subsistence for dining facilities. SIK garrison dining facility budget requirements are dependent on the number of personnel using the dining facilities versus the number of SIK Soldiers authorized to subsist without cost (participation

Page 121: DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY - GlobalSecurity.org...o FY 2006: The Army projects to end FY 2006 with end strength of 498,700 or 16,300 (7,800 work-years) above the baseline budget request

rate), and the cost of subsistence used in preparing meals (food cost). All CONUS and OCONUS installations have converted to the Subsistence Prime Vendor (SPV) program wherein commercial wholesale food distributors sell and deliver subsistence items directly to each dining facility. These commercial distributors replaced a system of government owned and operated depots. Operational Rations are rations used for field subsistence. Operational rations include the Meal-Ready-to Eat (MRE), Unitized Group Rations (UGR) that include “heat and serve” and A-ration varieties, and other operational rations, such as Cold Weather Rations. SIK funds the cost of operational rations for both officers and enlisted soldiers. The number of active duty Soldiers, the type of operational rations served and the requirements of the training scenarios determine costs for operational rations. Augmentation Rations include contract meals, KATUSA (Korean Augmentation to U.S. Army) rations and Host Nation support meals. Contract meals are furnished by commercial facilities when the payment of BAS would create an individual hardship and/or the costs for establishing a government mess facility are prohibitive. The number of authorized recipients, the type of augmentation ration served, and the quantity requirements determine costs for augmentation rations. Family Subsistence Supplemental Allowance (FSSA), pursuant to Section 402a of Title 37, United States Code, began 1 May 2001. The program is designed to provide members who are eligible for food stamps a supplemental allowance not to exceed $500 a month. A members may be eligible if his total household income, including the member’s BAH entitlement (even if the member is in quarters) is less than the food-stamp income eligibility ceiling, as defined by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. When a member is in a non-pay status for any reason, the member is not eligible for FSSA during that non-pay period. The FSSA is voluntary, and the member must reapply whenever he experiences a significant change in household income or number of people living in the household. Between FY 2006 and FY 2007 the subsistence program has decreased $182.6 million, primarily due to the $254 million FY 2006 Title IX funding/requirements that is not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

Project: Permanent Change of Station Travel

Part I - Purpose and Scope of Work

To improve unit cohesion and readiness, while reducing turbulence in units and uncertainty for families, the Army is changing how we man our units. Our objective is to keep Soldiers and leaders in units longer to reduce high turnover rates, to improve cohesion within units, and to increase training proficiency and overall combat readiness. Units that stay together longer function as a team better, understand their duties and their equipment better, require less periodic retraining, and tend to perform better during deployments. This budget includes funding for increased moves due to Integrated Global Presence and Basing Strategy (IGPBS). The assignment policy, now being implemented, will improve quality of life and increase predictability for Soldiers, families and civilian employers. Stabilizing Soldiers will allow families to build deeper roots within their communities and to enjoy more opportunities for spouse employment, continuity of healthcare, schooling and other benefits. This program also reduces the chance of a Soldier moving from a unit that recently redeployed to a unit preparing to deploy. The Army gains more cohesive, more experienced units; Soldiers and families gain stability and access to stronger support networks, which will enhance well-being. The funds requested are for expenses incident to Permanent Change of Station (PCS) travel of military personnel. The total requirement is a function of number of moves, entitlements, and rates. Entitlements for PCS include:

• Mileage and monetary allowances in lieu of transportation for members and dependents • Transportation by common carrier to include military airlift for members and

dependents. • Transportation of Household Goods (HHG) and baggage by common carrier, AMC, and SDDC.

Examples include cost of packing, crating, handling, and temporary storage. • Transportation and storage in lieu of transportation of Privately Owned Vehicles. • Port handling charges for HHG, baggage, and POVs. • Transportation of trailers. • Non-temporary storage of HHG and POVs. • Dislocation Allowances. • Temporary Lodging Expenses. • Pet Quarantine Fees.

The total number of moves is driven by the commitment to station 25 percent of the force overseas and by mandated end strength. All personnel overseas serve prescribed tour lengths as

directed by Senate Report 99-176, 1986 DOD Appropriation Bill and House of Representatives Report 99-81, Authorization Bill. Congressional language in these reports establishes 36 month accompanied and 24 month unaccompanied tour lengths unless assigned duty area is designated a hardship area by the Service Secretary.

• The overseas rotational moves account for 18 percent of the Army’s total moves program and 37 percent of total PCS costs.

• Accessions and Separations moves comprise 73 percent of total moves and 43 percent of the dollar requirement.

• The remaining move/dollar requirements consist of Operational, Training and Unit moves which equal 9 percent of total moves and 20 percent of dollar requirements. These moves are essential to maintain requisite levels of training, force readiness, quality of life, unit integrity, and support Base Realignment and Closure actions.

Note: FY 2005 Actual does not match official financial records. A decrease of $3.7 million was applied to this account to offset correction to cadet’s base pay. The cadet pay obligation was posted in error to the Operational PCS account.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The FY 2007 budget estimate decreased by -$226.6 million from FY 2006 to FY 2007 is based on:

1) Decrease in the number of moves yields a -$270.7 million decrease, which includes $133.6 million decrease associated with moves funded in FY 2006 Title IX that are not included in the FY 2007 baseline budget.

2) 2.2% inflation rate generates costs of +$26.0 million. 3) Authorized pay raise of 2.2% across-the-board with selective increases for certain

warrant officers and mid-grade senior enlisted personnel effective 1 April 2007 increases Dislocation Allowance costs by +$0.9 million.

4) POV Shipment program increases +$17.1 million.

Project: Accession Travel

Part I - Purpose and Scope Officers. This program element addresses PCS movements of: (1) officers appointed to a commissioned grade from civilian life, military academies, Reserve Officer Training Corps, and Army Reserve and National Guard officers called or recalled to extended duty from home or place where orders were received to first permanent duty station or training school of 20 weeks or more duration; and (2) new permanent duty station or training school. Also included are officers appointed from enlisted status upon graduation from Officer Candidate School. This category also includes travel to/from schools less than 20 weeks in duration when they precede completion of travel to the new permanent duty station or training school in excess of 20 weeks. Enlisted. This program element addresses PCS movements of: (1) enlistees and prior service personnel from recruiting station or place of enlistment to their first permanent duty station or training school of 20 weeks or more duration; and (2) recalled enlisted reservists from home to first permanent duty station or training school of 20 weeks or more duration. Also includes travel to/from schools less than 20 weeks when they precede completion of travel to the new permanent duty station or training school in excess of 20 weeks. Cadets. This program element funds PCS movements of: (1) individuals selected as academy cadets upon entry into the academy; and (2) individuals who travel to the academies but fail to pass the entrance physical examinations and are required to return home.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Accession estimates are based upon the officer, enlisted, and cadet gains necessary to meet the Army's planned manpower levels through FY 2007. Changes to this program can only be accommodated through adjustments in officer, enlisted or cadet strengths. Changes in move numbers between fiscal years reflect adjustments required to meet the Army’s projected end strengths. The following table provides detailed cost computations:

Project: Training Travel

Part I - Purpose and Scope

Officers. This program element funds CONUS PCS movements for officers and warrant officers: (1) from current permanent duty station to formal service or civilian schools, including technical schools, pilot training, factory training, and other approved courses of instruction of 20 weeks duration or more; and (2) to next CONUS permanent duty station upon completion of school or when eliminated from school prior to completion. This account excludes academy graduates, Officer Candidate School graduates, Reserve Officer Training Corps graduates, and others (chargeable as Accession travel) and those officers and warrant officers who are moving into and out of a training seat from/to an overseas location (chargeable as Rotational travel). Enlisted. This program element funds PCS movements of: (1) enlisted personnel from previous CONUS permanent duty station to formal service or civilian schools, including technical schools, aircraft maintenance training, factory training, and other approved courses of instruction, of 20 weeks duration or more; (2) enlisted school graduates and those eliminated from school to their next CONUS permanent duty station; and (3) enlisted personnel ordered to training leading to a commission, if such training period is of 20 weeks duration or more. Excluded are those soldiers moving in or out of a training seat to or from an overseas location (chargeable as Rotational travel).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

These funding requirements result from officer and enlisted personnel attending military, other federal government, and civilian training programs. Training is required to maintain the requisite skill levels/educational levels required by an Army that is capable of responding to strategic obligations in the evolving international environment. Training moves support the requirement to shape the force for tomorrow and the Army's duty to prepare soldiers to perform their required mission. Through training moves, the Army is provided with soldiers trained in aviation, medical specialties, linguistics, force modernization, leadership skills, and Special Forces operations. The following table provides detailed cost computations:

Project: Operational Travel

Part I - Purpose and Scope

Officers. This program element covers PCS movements of: (1) officers and warrant officers to and from permanent duty stations located within the United States; (2) officers and warrant officers to and from permanent duty stations located within an overseas area when no transoceanic travel is involved; and (3) dependents, household goods, personal effects, trailer allowances, and privately owned vehicles of officers and warrant officers who are interned, missing, or captured provided no transoceanic travel is involved. Enlisted. This program element covers PCS movements of: (1) enlisted personnel to and from permanent duty stations located within the United States; (2) enlisted personnel to and from permanent duty stations within an overseas area when no transoceanic travel is involved; and (3) dependents, household goods, personal effects, trailer allowances, and privately owned vehicles of enlisted personnel who are interned, missing, or captured provided no transoceanic travel is involved.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

Operational moves are critical to the Army’s ability to maintain readiness throughout the force. They are necessary to maintain units at required personnel readiness levels; support activations and inactivations; fill joint duty positions mandated under the Goldwater-Nichols DOD Reorganization Act of 1986; correct imbalances of skill and grade; support humanitarian, compassionate, and joint domicile needs; assign personnel to key positions in response to unprogrammed/unanticipated requirements, support Base Realignment and Closure actions and to fill high priority units.

Project: Rotational Travel

Part I - Purpose and Scope

Officers. This program element covers PCS movements of officers and warrant officers: (1) from permanent duty stations in CONUS to permanent duty stations overseas; (2) from permanent duty stations overseas to permanent duty stations in CONUS; (3) from permanent duty stations in one overseas area to permanent duty stations in another overseas area, but only when transoceanic travel is involved; and (4) dependents, household goods, personal effects, trailer allowance, and privately owned vehicles of officers and warrant officers who are interned, missing, or captured, but only when transoceanic travel is involved. Enlisted. This program element covers PCS movements of enlisted personnel: (1) from permanent duty stations in CONUS to permanent duty stations overseas; (2) from permanent duty stations overseas to permanent duty stations in CONUS; (3) from permanent duty stations overseas to permanent duty stations in another overseas area, but only when transoceanic travel is involved; and (4) dependents, household goods, personal effects, trailer allowances, and privately owned vehicles of enlisted personnel who are interned, missing, or captured, but only when transoceanic travel is involved.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

Rotational moves are driven by the commitment to station an appropriate number of the force overseas in support of the National Military Strategy. The number of moves required is determined by overseas end strength and the average time actually served overseas, less the number of overwater accession, separation, and unit moves. This budget includes funding for increased moves due to Integrated Global Presence and Basing Strategy (IGPBS).

Project: Death Gratuities Part I - Purpose and Scope The funds requested are for the payment of enhanced death gratuities to beneficiaries of deceased military personnel as authorized by law. Enhanced death gratuities are composed of basic pay, incentive pay, and overseas pay, if applicable. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2004 section 646, and the Military Families Tax Relief Act of 2003, P.L. 108-121, section 102 amends Section 1478(a) of Title 10 U.S.C., increasing the amount payable. The National Defense Authorization Act for FY 2005 section 643, increases the death gratuity consistent with increases of rates of basic pay effective on the same date as the basic pay rates under section 204 of title 37 are increased. The Emergency Supplemental Appropriation Act for the GWOT and Tsunami Relief of 2005, P.L. 109-52 increased the amount to $100,000 for deaths resulting from wounds, injuries, and illness incurred in a combat operation zone. Public Law 109-13 for retroactive payment of death benefits that meet specific date and circumstance criteria outlined in 10 U.S.C. 1478. 38 U.S.C. 1967 authorizes a new $150,000 Combat addition to SGLI beginning September 1, 2005. Part II - Justification of Funds Requested Fund requirements are based on the most recent mortality rates as applied against programmed man-years of personnel and the statutory gratuity payment. Retroactive payments are included in FY 2005, payments are computed retroactively to October 7, 2001. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: SGLI Traumatic Injury Payments

Part I - Purpose and Scope The Military Services are required to submit to the Department of Veterans Affairs payments for the program start-up, retroactive, and future costs associated with the recently enacted T-SGLI program, which was established under Section 1032 of the FY 2005 DoD Emergency Supplemental Appropriations for the Global War on terror and Tsunami Relief (P.L. 109-13).

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested

The funds are required to make Traumatic Service Members’ Group Life Insurance (TSGLI) payments. TSGLI is a new benefit for Soldiers who incurred a traumatic injury in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIF) and Operation Enduring Freedom (OEF). This new traumatic injury protection available under the Service Members’ Group Life Insurance (SGLI) plan provides financial assistance to eligible Soldiers and their families, which is vital during their extensive recovery and rehabilitation process. The following table provides detailed cost computations:

Project: Unemployment Benefits Paid to Ex-Service Members

Part I - Purpose and Scope Funds are to pay unemployment benefits to ex-service members who are discharged or released under honorable conditions as prescribed in Paragraph (1) of Section 8521(a) of Title 5, United States Code. The Department of Labor is the executive agency for the program; however, program administration is accomplished by each state. Generally, an ex-service member is eligible if discharged or released under honorable conditions, and member completed his first full term of active service. Also eligible is one who was discharged or released before completing first term of service for the convenience of the Government, because of medical disqualification, hardship, personal disorders, or ineptitude, but only if the service was continuous for 365 days or more. The Emergency Unemployment Compensation Act of 1991 (P.L. 102-164) extended unemployment compensation benefits for former military personnel up to 26 weeks with a one-week waiting period. The law also reduced the amount of active duty days required in a reserve status from 180 continuous days to 90 continuous days to be considered as "federal service" for claim purposes. The Job Creation and Worker Assistance Act of 2002 (P.L. 107-147) extended unemployment compensations benefits an additional 13 weeks for workers who had exhausted the original 26 weeks of benefits. The Temporary Extended Unemployment Compensation (TEUC) Act of 2002 (P.L. 108-1) extends the unemployment compensations benefits an additional 5 months for workers who had exhausted the original 26 weeks and the TEUC of 13 weeks.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested The estimated unemployment benefit payments are based on programmed separations from the Army and average monthly benefit amounts of compensation actually disbursed in FY 2004. In addition, the Army’s cost projections have incorporated U.S. Department of Labor’s estimates. Detailed cost computations are provided by the following table:

Project: Survivor Benefits

Part I - Purpose and Scope Funds are requested to provide for payments of restored social security and educational benefits to widows and orphans of deceased Army military personnel. Section 156 of Public Law 97-37, modified by Section 943 of the DOD Authorization Act, 1984, P.L. 98-94, Stat. 614, restored these Social Security benefits to survivors of military members, and directed the Department of Defense to budget for this requirement. Cost estimates from the Department of Veterans Affairs include P.L. 106-419, Subtitle B, Survivor’s, and Dependent's Educational Assistance, Sec 111, Reinstatement Entitlement Program for Survivor's (REPS).

Project: Educational Benefits

Part I - Purpose and Scope This program is budgeted on an accrual basis by the Department of Defense. The DOD Board of Actuaries establishes per capita normal costs and amortization rates for each fiscal year. Actual benefit payments to individuals will be made by the Department of Veterans Affairs from funds transferred from the Trust Fund account. The 1999 Strom Thurmond National Defense Authorization Act increased the maximum amount of educational benefits authorized to $50,000. Beginning in FY 2000 OSD realigned funding for the College Fund to BA2 Enlisted Pay in order to enhance recruiting efforts. The amortization payment along with the post-Vietnam era voluntary and involuntary separatees costs remain in BA6. Under 10 U.S.C. Sec 2006(f)(3, 4); (g)(2), the Secretary of Defense must determine an amortization methodology and schedule to liquidate any unfunded liability or surplus in the Fund, based on the most recent actuarial valuation. Also, the basic benefits of post-Vietnam era voluntary and involuntary separatees are not prefunded. The amortization payment for these benefits is based on the most recent valuation of the DOD Education Benefits Fund.

Project: JROTC

Part I - Purpose and Scope

Junior Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (JROTC) is a public service program available to high school students. This program fosters good citizenship, patriotism, and leadership skills for this valuable potential pool of military applicants. This program budget provide funds for the issue-in-kind uniforms and subsistence for students enrolled in the JROTC program at secondary education institutions as provided for in 10 U.S.C. 2031. In FY 2007 these funds supports 1,645 JROTC units in high school in the United States, Europe, Korea, and Japan.

Part II - Justification of Funds Requested JROTC remains one of the most successful Army programs enabling our ability to have a positive presence & foster citizenship programs in our high schools & communities. MPA funds provide core-level resources to operate the Army’s JROTC program in CONUS and OCONUS locations as mandated by the U.S. Congress. It funds costs of cadet issue-in-kind uniforms, accoutrements, meals at summer camp and laundry/alterations. Without these resources, the Army could not continue its JROTC program, which has strong public support.

Section 5 Military Personnel, Army

Defense Working Capital Funds (DWCF) Reimbursements

Introduction The Defense Working Capital Funds (DWCF) (formerly the Defense Business Operations Fund (DBOF)) was established in order to expand the use of business-like financial management practices. DWCF was initiated to improve the tools available to managers of the support establishment by collecting all costs related to goods and services, including military costs. Prior to the DWCF, activities did not pay for the cost of military support. Reimbursements requested are for the cost of base pay and entitlements for military personnel assigned to DWCF activities.

Justification of Funds Requested The estimated reimbursements are based on the Under Secretary of Defense (Comptroller) guidance. Estimated manpower reflects the number of work years for each DWCF business area. Detailed cost by DWCF activity is provided by the following table:
